For the past three years the people around
North BrownviIle have been greatly troubled
hy the depredations committed by great
black bear which has made that vicinity his
headquarters. He has killed sheep, visited
orchards. stolen everything around the town
that was at all tempting TO his appetite and at
times has been so near houses that he has
been easily seen from the doors. The people
have tried every means in their power to cap
ture and put an end to his work but without
success until this week. A few days ago Syl-
vester Abbey rugged a spring gun under an
annie tree which the bear sometimes passes.
One morning this week he went out and the
old fellow was dead having squarely received
the charge of buckshot which the gun con-
tanned He was found to be an ancient set
tier indeed Two of his enormous paws were
missing where he had hauled them off in traps,
while another was badly wounded from the
effects of trap. The people around the
place, who have suffered from the depreda-
ton of Bruin are not by any means sorry TO
hear of his downfall. Beargor Commercial.

its most active and influential member; she
has constantly taken a deep interest In It's
work: always present at its meetings when
possible, contributing literally from her
large resources to its treasury at home and
perhaps than any other single member of the
Union to render il efficient in carrying on the
grand work for which it was organized. She is
held in the highest esteem by all its members al
home and abroad, filling with distinguished
ability some of the highest offices of the order.
lady of rare good sense, of large observa-
ton having travelled extensively in foreign
lands, and of eminent piety, quiet and I'M
| suming her influence has been most poten-
tial for the elevation and publication OF
society In so great esteem is she held, Sd
much is she beloved by the members of the
Winthrop W c. T. L. of which she is a
member, so much has she done for this
organization, that her co-workers determined
to show their regard for her and her work in
some substantial manner.
Saturday evening last was the time agreed
upon, and at precisely seven o'clock, the
members of the Winthrop Union to the num-
Der of sixty or more, proceeded in body 10
her beautiful home at Winthrop Center and
| took complete possession of the same, carry
ing with them a very large, beautiful and
costly album as slight token of love and
esteem in which she is universally held.
So well had the ladies kept the intended
visit secret, that Mrs. Bailey was taken COM
pletely by surprise; the first intimation she
received of what was going on was when the
doors of her spacious and elegant parlors
were thrown open, and the ladies of the
Union marched in arm in arm. She surren'
dered, however, most gracefully, and cor
daily welcomed them, one and all, to heI
home. Mrs. II. A. Springer, wife of the
Rev Mr. Springer of Hallowell, presented the
album to Mrs. Bailey, together with the por-
traits of many of the most distinguished tenn
perance advocates in the country, in a few
choice and appropriate remarks. Mrs. Bailey
was visibly affected, but accepted the gift
with evident delight coming as it did from
her sisters, neighbors and friends as token
of their friendship and love. The evening
was most pleasantly passed with music and
singing Mrs c. T. Bailey and Miss Eta
Johnston presiding at the piano to the great
delight of all present. County Attorney
Carleton, who was present by special invita-
| ton, was called upon for a speech. A
sumptous picnic supper which was brought
| by the ladies, together with coffee, was served
At 10 o'clock in the spacious dining-halls
Prayer was offered by the Rev. Mr.. Jones OF
the Methodist Episcopal church of Winthrop
and the company repaired to their homes

Cause of the Prevalent American Heart
Disease

People past fifty often die of ordinary
diseases, and the physician tells you there
was insuffciency of the heart, or nervous
system, which would not respond to medical
treatment People drop dead from in
sufficiency of the heart 1t is called heart
disease. symptoms are easily out of breath,
nervous, weakness in the chest. Causes ::
wearying care, perplexities, an intense
emotional nature. Many constitutions are
broken at forty-fve or fifty. Heavy bust
ness is crushing the life out of the American
people, and causing all of it. In illustration
Col Bennett, the famous Philadelphia mil
lionnaire. was told by his physicians he was
in that condition. and they could not help
him. 4 celebrated Judge of the Supreme
Court told him to take MOxie---medicine
would do no good. 1t brought his nervous
system up at once, and he has been in bust
ness and solid health over a year. He now
declares he will build monument in the
Park to it, iscoyerer Nourish the excessive
nerve wear, and you will prolong your life
very much. Medicine will do nothing in such
eases. A. THOMPSON, NJ. ID.
